If workers have finally killed the woke corporation, so be it. America is better off without these fictions in our midst. onesarahjones writes
Photo: Erik S Lesser/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock In her book Private Government, the philosopher Elizabeth Anderson argues that the modern workplace resembles a dictatorship. Absent meaningful government oversight or a robust unionized workforce, a boss can control what an employee wears and with whom they speak and when they get free time. Should a worker object to the regime, they can leave, but they’re really only exchanging one dictatorship for another.
Now workers are telling a different story. Union drives in Bessemer and Staten Island show a face that Amazon has been eager to hide from the public. When Chris Smalls organized a small protest to call attention to the company’s inadequate COVID safety measures, Amazon fired him and then strategized how best to smear him.
Starbucks also briefly banned workers from wearing BLM shirts before later making its own, corporate version, and it has repeatedly fired workers who are involved with a national campaign to unionize the chain, store by store. “I think this is Starbucks’ way of making a statement of what could potentially happen if we were to vote yes for the union,” one fired worker, Sharon Gilman, told Vice News.
